Hi RCori,

For the portable booth look at vocalboothstogo.com. I purchased mine from there. I have mine in a basement away from all windows and I did add some more sound proofing materials. When tested it meets the sound floor specs for ACX. For microphones take a look at the Audio-Technica AT875R. I just switched to this from my Shure and am really loving it. Good Luck!!

Hi Robert!
Just from my experience I have tried both. For photography I went to a professional to do my headshot after I went to a “Budget” one and they did not turn out the way I wanted. As for the website I have used a couple different ones, even though I have done all my websites myself. Started with GoDaddy which is not to bad but the website that you can build there is limited unless you pay more for a different plan. I recently switched over to Hostinger. You have a couple different ways to go there … wordpress or their A.I. I tried their A.I one which is pretty customizable and that is what I currently have working. In the background I am working on a site with wordpress which is what I will go with but I am just taking my time with that one to get it exactly how I want it. Hope that helps. You can check out my site if you want at BrianLakes.com.

Hello everyone!! I am looking for an accountability group. Are any of you in one? Is it beneficial? I live in Colorado and would love to be part of one or start one with someone. I look forward to hearing from you all! You can email me at Brian@brianlakes.com if interested.

Hi Gwen!
Your voice is very calming. I like it! Your pace and diction are good, you had a pause in there between full and active lives. A tad more inflection to sound even more believable. Audio sounds good!
Overall good job. Keep it up!

Hi Shay. Nice voice! When you are reading a script make sure your cadence is smooth and you are not adding comma’s to the script where there are none. In the first part of the first sentence you have a pause in between “No” and “Better”, same thing with “Control” and “Of”. On the next sentence the word “Because” is rushed more than the rest of the sentence. (This is something I have been working on as I tend to do this too). Your audio quality and setup sounds good! Keep it up!

Good evening everyone! I have an e-learning sample here. Couple questions for you all.
1. Does it sound conversational?
2. Is my pace good or do I sound choppy?
3. Am I cutting off any words or do any words sound goofy? 🙂

I appreciate any info or advice that you have! Thanks so much!!!

Hi Treva!
Nice read. I would slow down just a bit with the sentence that starts “Contrary” as that sounds fast and let the “Wellbeing” make it self heard. Keep up the great work!
